What is Portrait® Skin Regeneration?
Portrait® Skin Regeneration with
the Portrait® PSR3 is like nothing else available
today. This is clinically proven technology that perfectly
addresses patient demand for a balance between cosmetic
improvement and limited downtime. Amazingly enough,
this new breakthrough skin regeneration system has nothing
to do with lasers, light, or injections. Instead, it
delivers millisecond pulses of nitrogen plasma to the
skin's surface.
How does Portrait® Skin Regeneration
work?
We'll take you back to junior high
chemistry for a moment and remind you that nitrogen
is a colorless, odorless gaseous element that belongs
to group 15 of the periodic table. It makes up 78% of
the atmosphere, and is a part of all living tissues.
When delivered to the surface of the skin, the nitrogen
plasma generates a very controlled heat that targets
below the surface, initiating a skin rejuvenation process.
Meanwhile the skin's outer layers are
preserved acting as a natural, protective dressing immediately
following the procedure. In other words, unlike a laser
skin resurfacing procedure, there is no "open"
wound following the Portrait® procedure because
energy is transferred to the skin without direct contact.
And while some treatments lead to improved skin only
at the surface, Portrait® alters the structures
below the surface creating unique conditions for continuing
regeneration.
The outcome of the 10-15 minute procedure
is unparalleled for improvement in wrinkles, skin tone,
texture and surface discoloration that actually becomes
more dramatic over time, continuing for 6-12 months!
What makes Portrait® Skin Regeneration
different from other available treatments?
Portrait® Skin Regeneration dramatically
reduces wrinkles and improves your skin tone and texture
without lengthy downtime, no more than a week with even
the most intensive treatment. There is minimal discomfort
or redness, and clinical trials to date reveal no scarring
or hypo-pigmentation problems. You'll see results consistent
with more aggressive laser treatments, but the Portrait®
procedure lets you resume normal activities quickly.
What does the procedure feel like?
You will experience a heat sensation
during the procedure, and depending on the level of
treatment your clinician will recommend either topical
numbing cream or an anesthetic injection, and perhaps
an oral pain medication.
How many treatments will I need?
Typically 1-4 treatments are recommended,
depending your skin's condition and the level of improvement
you are seeking relative to downtime.
When will I see results?
The results will be seen almost right
away, but again, one of the unique characteristics of
Portrait® is that your skin will show continual
improvement over time. Clinical studies show patients
experience ongoing improvements for as much as a year
after the treatment.

Some SKINovative® clinics are among
the first cosmetic practices to offer this cutting edge
technology. Patients who have received this treatment
have received very positive reactions from their family,
friends and co-workers. People ask them what they've
had done and where they can have it performed. We invite
you to schedule a free consultation and evaluation to
see if the Plasma Portrait® PSR3 procedure is right
for you.
